“At 3 p.m., In a watch shop near Shanghai’s Shing Wong Temple. ”
“The watch shop’s name was Henry, and it was said to be a century-old shop. ”
“The shop was full of ancient charm, as if it had traveled through time and space, returning to that era of rapid growth. ”
“There were wind chimes at the door. When the door opened, the wind chimes made a pleasant and crisp sound. ”
“Zhao Yu and cui Lizhu walked into the watch shop one after the other. The store was full of clocks and watches, as if they had entered a Museum. ”
“However, the boss of the watch shop was a young man, so young that Zhao Yu had a bad feeling that he had come to the wrong place. ”
“At this moment, the young man was playing with his mobile phone. When he heard the guests coming in, he asked without even looking up,”Do you want to repair the watch or buy it? ”
“If you want to fix a watch, just put it on the counter!” He gently knocked on the counter.”If you’re here to buy a watch, then please take a look for yourself!” ”
“Hehe,” cui Lizhu stuck out her tongue and said,”I’m just a shirking business owner!” ”
“You’re right, hehe …” The young man glanced at cui Lizhu and said,”my dad is fixing someone’s watch. I’m just here to look after the shop!” ”
“Okay …” Cui Lizhu pouted and shook her head at Zhao Yu, which meant that she had come at the wrong time. ”
“However, Zhao Yu’s mood was not affected by this, but he took out the diamond-inlaid watch that he had taken off his arm and put it in front of the young man’s face. ”

“Wow!” He sighed in surprise.” 1918, St. Norway! Are you guys rich?” ”
“Oh?” “Do you recognize this watch?” cui Lizhu asked. ”
“Of course, we’re an aristocratic family!” The young man finally put down his phone and carefully observed the watch. He praised,”where did you get this? This kind of watch is very rare!” ”
“Is it valuable?” Out of professional habit, cui Lizhu immediately asked for the price. ”
“It’s embedded with diamonds,” the young man said as he took a magnifying glass and looked at it seriously.”If it’s true, our small shop can’t afford it! ”
“Wow,” the young man exclaimed,”it’s really 1918!” This isn’t a replica, it’s the real sandaway!” ”
“Are you sure?” “You’re so sure. Have you seen this before?” cui Lizhu asked. ”
“Yes,” the young man nodded and said,”there was a watch exhibition in Shanghai a few years ago, and I saw it at the exhibition!” ”
“Young man,” Zhao Yu said,”tell us about the origin of this watch!” ”
“Um … You … You …” The young man asked curiously,”what do you mean by this? do you want me to appraise it, or … Do you want to entrust us to find a buyer?” ”
“Let’s appraise it first!” In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Zhao Yu took out his id and showed his identity.”This watch is related to an unsolved case!” I hope you can provide us with some help …” ”
“Ah?” The young man rarely dealt with police officers, so he immediately panicked and said,”I … I’ll call my dad now! ”
“Um … Wait … Wait a minute …” After he picked up the phone, he suddenly thought of something and quickly turned to run upstairs.”I … I think I’ll just call me Grandpa!” ”
“A few minutes later, the young man helped an old man with a white beard down the stairs. The old man looked to be almost 90 years old. He held a Dragon-headed walking stick in his hand. His body was hunched, but he was in good spirits. ”
“So it’s 1918 …” ”
“The old man smiled and greeted Zhao Yu, then sat in front of the counter and carefully observed the watch with a magnifying glass. ”
“Well …” After a long observation, he nodded and said,”this watch is not bad. It’s real. When my father opened a martial arts school in Hongkou, a Japan officer gave him a piece. But my father had a backbone and didn’t want it!” ”
“Grandpa, ahem …” The young man coughed and said awkwardly,”you’re wrong. My great-grandfather runs a watch shop, and the one who opened the martial arts school is Chen Zhen!” ”
“Oh, oh oh …” The old man smiled naively.”I know, I was just joking, just joking! Hehe … ”
“My two distinguished guests,” he pointed to the watch on the counter and said,”this watch should have a great history! The person who owns it must be very rich!” ”
“Not a distinguished guest,” the young man quickly corrected.”It’s a police officer!” ”
“Then …” Zhao Yu quickly asked,”do you know where I could have bought this kind of watch more than thirty years ago? Do many people buy this kind of watch?” ”
“Well …” The old man stroked his beard and thought for a moment, then said,”this is not an easy question to answer. Although this watch is expensive, it is not so expensive that no one can afford it!” ”
“However, because of the production and production, this kind of watch is very rare, especially in our country! So, if you’re asking about thirty years ago, it’s definitely impossible to buy it from a store!” ”
“Boss, that’s a very low standard question!” Cui Lizhu stuck out her tongue and asked,”why must I buy it? Couldn’t it be passed down from their ancestors? ”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Because it’s passed down from generation to generation, that’s why it’s in the safe?” ”
“That’s right, this granddaughter is right!” The old lady looked at Zhao Yu and said kindly,”you have to tell me, what do you want to know? This customer, oh no, this officer?” ”
“Well, okay …” As the case was not top secret, Zhao Yu immediately told them about the safe, the arm, and the watch. ”
“Wow!” The young man perked up when he heard that.”There’s such a weird case? Was he wearing a 1918 on his arm? If this gets on the news, it’ll definitely cause a sensation, right?” ”
“Why?” cui Lizhu asked curiously.”Do you guys prefer to call it 1918?” ”
“Because,” the young man said,”this watch was made in 1918. At that time, it was produced for about 5000 Yuan! That’s why it’s called 1918! ”
“Look …” He pointed to the watch and said,”the number 1918 is engraved on the inner circle of the watch. This is only available in that year. The later batches are not as valuable as this batch!” ”
“The outer beach has always been a mix of good and bad, and people rent them everywhere,” the old man said.”So, it’s only natural that this kind of watch will be passed to Shanghai!” ”
“Officer,” the old man said objectively,”actually, we can’t help you much. We can only tell you the value of this watch. As for helping you find the owner of this watch, that’s impossible!” ”
“Yeah, it’s been more than 30 years!” The young man said,”even if this watch is rare, Shanghai is so big. There’s no way to know its origin! ”
“In my opinion,” he picked up his phone and suggested,”why don’t we let the media expose it?” Looking for clues from the public? Wouldn’t that increase our chances?” ”
“The young man’s words hit the nail on the head. This case was different from previous cases, as the police could collect clues from the public. ”
“However, if it was someone else, it would be understandable to collect clues from the public. But for Zhao Yu, it was a little embarrassing. ”
“This case wasn’t urgent, so Zhao Yu didn’t want to alert the media too early. ”
“In addition, through the conversation with the grandfather and grandson, it seemed that there was nothing to learn, but Zhao Yu felt that something had already attracted his attention! ”
